MOSCOW, November 11 (Itar-Tass) — In the last year, about 10 generals have been dismissed or denied promotion for submitting dubious income declarations, head of the Russian presidential administration Sergei Ivanov told the TV Channel One on Sunday.

Ivanov, who is Secretary of the Russian Presidential Anti-Corruption Commission, explained that “declarations of officials and generals are considered behind closed doors” at the commission’s meetings. “In the last year, the declarations of some 10 generals have caused serious doubts, as a result of which some were fired and some denied promotion,” Ivanov said.

“We do not have and should not have the untouchable persons,” he said.
